Ive seen videos that show they are fine up at even 3400fps, but I'm interested in any one else's additional info.
I shot a bull Elk through the ribs with a 180 gr accubond at 30 yds with a 300 wm. Velocity was just over 3000 fps at muzzle. Through both lungs and caught a tiny bit of the top of the heart and exited. It broke one rib on entrance and two on exit. Bullet was not recovered. Elk fell over inside of 50 yds
